Title: Deck help?:)
Post by: Moocow4u2 on August 28, 2013, 06:47:36 PM
I was looking through my cards and noticed I have many cards, mostly enchantments, that do small amounts of damage over time or whenever something happens, like {hissing miasma}, {sinister possession},  and {stab wound}. I was thinking it would be fun to build a deck around that :P they'll slowly watch themselves die and anything they do will speed it up. I have many cards in there that do small amounts of damage each turn like the {bogbrew witch}, {festering newt} and {bubbling cauldron} combo, {blistergrub}, many enchantments and curses that do damage over time or per action (such as when they attack or block).

I've played it a few times and it's rather slow :o and I use up all my cards quite fast once I build up the mana. At the moment it's only black however I wouldn't mind trying to put in other cards of other colours in if I can :) any suggestions how to speed this up or cards that would work in this???

You splash in red and add {Sire of insanity} to combo with things like {Blood scrivener} and {megrim}

Oh great idea :)

I also saw a card once where the opponent can't attack unless they pay X where X is the number of enchantments I control.

What card is that? I think it might be a good defense for this deck

If would splash red and white! :) {Curse of exhaustion}, {Sphere of safety}, {Curse of the Pierced heart}, {Curse of the bloodletting}. Oh {Curse of Misfortunes} and {Curse of Thirst} are good black ones too :)

Careful though on depending too much on curses, one witchbane orb and its over, so remember to pack artifact or just general permanent removal.

It won't destroy enchantments that aren't curses though right?

If you want to go Golgari, I would add a few {Grim Backwoods} so you could get the cards you want while,at the same time,increasing your graveyard size.
